Buying Train Ticket in Georgia

The most efficient way to buy train ticket is to go to the ticket office at Mazniashvili 5. There is usually an English speaking staff member. You should have valid ID or a passport with you. You can also buy tickets online. Go to railway.ge website, click the map on the right. You can check the connections as well as buy ticket. You need to register and then follow their procedure, pretty much the same as any other online booking system. It only accepts Visa or MasterCard. If you are travelling on an electronic ticket, show the conductor the ticket purchase code and the ID you used during the booking process. Beware: the online booking engine sometimes just doesn’t work. Remember that for popular destinations (Tbilisi, Kutaisi) you should buy tickets at least 2 days in advance, especially in high season.
